Clutch

#1 Post by mrapriliafalco » Mon Jan 31, 2011 11:23 am

Can anyone help with my clutch!!
This is my 3rd Falco,the biting point on my other falcos was a lot nearer to the bars,I keep struggling to pull away there is a lot more travel on this one.Apart from the 4 settings dial on the lever can they be adjusted or does this mean my clutch is on the way out.

There is a small plunger pin attached to the lever that can be adjusted to bring the biting point closer to the bar, but beware of the tiny locking grub screw and undo that 1st.

Also don't turn it too far in or it can unintentionaly disengage the clutch slightly causing slipping.
